THANK YOU SO MUCH DAISYMAE2017 for nominating me for the LIEBSTER award. I feel so incredibly humbled and honored to accept this award.
There are a few rules to follow:
- Answer the 11 questions that your nominator has asked you.
- Nominate 11 other bloggers(with under 200 followers).
- Ask your nominees 11 questions.
- Let them know you nominated them.
Answers To Questions From daisyymae2017:
- What is your job?
Online revenue. One of our lines of work is an online marketing start-up, focusing on marketing people and products, while our other one is another start-up that focuses on social media presence.
- What kind of pet(s) do you own?
While we don’t have our very own pet per say. At the moment, living in the wilderness has brought us a ton of birds, snakes, coyotes, grasshoppers, and insects. With that being said, we don’t have just one or two pets, we have a whole slew of them at the moment! They’ve practically have become family at this point. So you name it we more than likely got it.
- What was your favorite class in school?
Hard to say, that was so long ago… On one hand there’s Pro foods. What is there not to love?! Although being graded based on how we cook is involved, you get to eat while at the same time socialize with friends. Then, there’s Pottery class. Need I say more?! You got to be a kid practically. Pottery allowed you to use your imagination and creativity when making a masterpiece, bringing out the inner child in you.
- Where do you want to be in 5 years?
In 5 years we would like to have come out of this journey of ours with a newfound appreciation for the life we have and make something of ourselves. Meaning, we hope to have a different perception of the world we live in and no longer take the small things in life for granted, have self will power, find something to be grateful for in each and every single day, be more connected with nature, ourselves as well as one another, and to be able to better handle the things that are outside of our control. Together, we would like to be out of this rough patch we are currently faced with and be successful in in life in order to have the resources needed to get married and have kids, providing a good and healthy upbringing for them. This is where we hope and pray to be by then.
- What is your favorite extracurricular activity?
Basketball. It’s like gym life; you get a good work out in except while running and being competitive.
- Give me 5 pieces of advice to increase traffic on my blogs?
Be pro-active. Engage with your audience by interacting with them on a regular basis. Know your niche. An easy way to figure this out is by looking into the main topic of which you talk about and finding what your overall main theme is. Once you know this stick with it. It’s okay to touch a variety of topics, just be sure to keep it within line of your blogs central theme. Doing so will keep your readers wanting more, thus, growing more of a following. Add social media links to promote your blog and generate more traffic flow. Lastly, be wise when posting. Coming up with a good plan of strategy is key; you’ll perform better and will create better content when well thought out. So please don’t post just for the sake of it. Remember quality over quantity.
- What would you like to tell me about yourself, in order to be friends?
We are truly a well-rounded couple. We’re honest, polite, and well mannered with good intensions.
- Where do you live and do you like it and what about where you live do you like best?
In the middle of nowhere surrounded by nature and wildlife. Oh, and let’s not forget the road when scouting out our next adventure. I think what we like best is the different way of life lived as well as the difference in pace. There is a sense of feeling grounded when you live this way. You’re naturally more active, more likely to explore what you never would have living a different way. Not to mention, your more on the move than you would be if you had a permanent residency, getting to travel different places. It’s a much more relaxed environment from the norm and much less slow paced.
- Who is your unsung hero(s)?
God, he works in extraordinary ways when you least expect it.
- Anything you want to share with your fellow bloggers about your life?
We haven’t had the easiest of lives, facing illnesses to job losses, and pretty much losing everything we had but are optimistic and truly believe that things happen for a reason, for the better good.
Here’s a quote of ours that we always remind ourselves of:
“Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows, it can be ugly at times and knock you off your feet. When it does, you just have to be able to put yourself together and get up and try again, if you don’t succeed, try again, and keep trying until you make it. Your life depends on it.”
- If you were unemployed, how would you react and what would you?
We were there not long ago and at the same time as a matter of fact. I can’t say we handled it entirely well but tried to, to the best of our ability, at least at that moment in time. Illness got in the way, interfering with the performance of the job duties required. On the other handle, disagreements and lack of morals played a toll for the other.

Hang in there! You certainly are not alone, we all have challenges in life. I have found those challenges humble us, but also make us more creative and appreciative of what we do have. The key is ALWAYS staying positive and never giving up, which allows small miracles or stepping stones to come in our life. Like one guy told my daughter when she was nervous about taking an exam, he said, “You’ve ALREADY got the “A,” you took the course, now you just have to put that information on the paper. YOU GOT THIS!” Good luck! Reach for the stars.

This resonated with us hugely. We too have had a tough few years, lost jobs, struggling with health and lack of money. We had to sell our home and ran away to France. Today we sleep in a little house on our land with no hot water, and no toilet. But we have a dilapidated barn that we are rebuilding ourselves and land for growing veg.
It’s home and our future. London we loved but it destroyed us mentally over money worries.
Like you we have come to the countryside. It’s an adventure. It’s stressful too sometimes but we are optimistic we can pull through.
I am looking forward to hearing your progress and I know you will gain so much in the end.

Oh wow, you have been through so much yet have found the means to live the best life possible for yourselves. I would have never gotten it in me to go so far as to moving to a different country, I really admire the length you both were willing to take and did just that. It definitely has a way to take control over you mentally when you hit rock bottom, it’s up to us if we allow it to. you didn’t, you took a bad situation and made the most of it:) How is the progress going with rebuilding the barn? I truly wish the best for you two!
